Testimonials

We engaged Jo and John at PGG Wrightson to help us sell our lifestyle property in the Waimakariri.
Our particular property was a little bit different from most, in that it had two smaller houses on 10 acres. Not your usual one grand house + one granny flat set up.
So potentially a bit of a tougher sale, due to a limited pool of buyers who would be looking in this particular sector of the market.
From the very beginning we found Jo and John bought these particular qualities to our project:
- Fantastic communication. They were clear and precise, and we were able to connect with them at any time.
- They had a wealth of knowledge in the industry. They were able to give us the best advice in how we could go about achieving top result.
- Their commission costs were transparent and competitive. We had Plenty of choice in how the campaign would be run.
- Very well connected with other professionals in the industry. We were blown away with the quality of the photography package, as well as the prompt follow up on all the admin side.
- They had a solid plan from the start, with a step-by-step process to achieving a successful sale.
- Marketing. This was real stand out to us. Our property got some huge coverage over a combination of the internet, newsprint, and internal market links. We ended up getting some substantial free upgrades as well. I.e. a full page spread in the newspaper
All in all we were highly impressed with Jo and John. They brought a calm, professional and experienced presence to our project. They went over and above what was expected of them. Best of all, they achieved a fantastic sale price in what was a bit of a flat market at the time.
We would highly recommend you get in touch with them if you are considering buying or selling.

"After much consideration and some heart break we decided to sell our thirteen-hectare block and loved family home of thirty years. We chose Jo and John to undertake this task. We could not have made a better decision.

From the outset they have handled the situation with tact and sensitivity. They guided us assuredly along the rocky road towards market readiness and worked with perseverance and discretion to ensure all the procedures were correct. They have been clear in their communication, focussed in reaching their goals which ultimately achieved the best outcomes for us and they were diligent in keeping us informed.

They went way beyond what could be expected helping us to find a new home and eventually representing us extremely competently at auction to secure it.

They have been fantastic in achieving the result they expected to our benefit. Would we recommend them in matters of real estate? Absolutely, Without a doubt.

What sets them apart?

  • Their lived experience and skill.
  • Their in-depth knowledge of real estate and the auction process.
  • Their courage and can-do attitude.
  • Their high standard of presentation.
  • Their sensitivity.
  • Their integrity.
  • Their perseverance.
  • Their positivity.
  • Their professionalism.

A genuine couple whose skill set complements one another and who have competently and with care, helped us transition to the next stage of our lives together."

"It was a real pleasure working with you both and I highly recommend Team Priebee to get the job done when selling your home.  Their commitment to excellence in marketing and communication goes hand and hand with their down to earth, no-nonsense style of getting the job done. 10 out of 10"

Mary Cusdin

"It was a real pleasure working with you both and I was impressed with the extra effort you put in to sell our home even after it went under contract the first time which was awesome because when the first sale did not go ahead you had backup buyers waiting in the wings and got the deal done.  I highly recommend Team Priebee to get the job done when selling your home"

C Cusdin

"Completely professional from start to finish. John and Jo are astute communicators and immediately establishes strong connections with both me the vendor and prospective purchasers. They gave me great advice and dealt with several difficult situations calmly and tactfully, ensuring a positive outcome for both me and the purchaser. We were delighted with the final sale price. John and Jo promised a professional and committed service and they delivered on every front. They have assisted me in the search for a new home with advice and letting me know about possible listings I may be interested in.
Thank-you John and Jo."

John Halgreen

"John and Jo fit very much into the category of real estate professionals. They have a long and proven track record in the industry and have built their reputation by working incredibly hard to achieve the best outcomes for their clients. Communication is a big focus for them and they never lose sight of the fact that the process of selling or buying a home can be stressful and they prioritise keeping all parties fully informed throughout the process to help minimise the stress."

Chris M

"I have know John and Jo Priebee for some years now and have always found them to be of high integrity, honest and very caring.

They acted for me when I sold my property in Alexandra and throughout the whole process they were very good at keeping me updated with progress and honest. They eventually found the right buyer for my property.

They are both very hardworking and will work to secure either a sale of your property or the purchase of a new property.

I have absolute no hesitation in recommending them to anyone."

Kristina Farrell

John and Jo helped us secure our dream home in 2019.

They approached us about a property that was coming up for sale, as they knew it was a place we were interested in.

John and Jo helped us to get in promptly with an offer on our dream home.  They were then able to assist us with the sale of our original home, so we could secure our offer.

It was all done in perfect timing, which was no easy task with three properties all needing sold at the same time, to make it all work.  John and Jo throughout the whole process were professional, helpful and always available to answer any questions as needed.

They both made the sale of our house and the purchase of our dream home possible and we couldn’t have done it without them.

I would highly recommend John and Jo to anybody wanting to buy or sell their property… you won’t be disappointed.
